10.3 Design guidelines

Figure 10-3 shows the Runtime pattern and Product mapping used in this scenario. It is based on IBM WebSphere Application Server V5.0.2 and the Direct Connection application pattern. It also includes the Web Services Gateway packaged with IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V5.0.2.

This pattern models the connector between the source application node on the left and the gateway node in the middle, and the connector between the gateway and target application node on the right, as simple lines. Both connectors could also be modeled using coupling adapter connectors if further detail is need, similar to the basic Web services product mapping shown in Figure 9-1 on page 185.
